“Our ambition is to become the number one online fashion marketplace in the region. We aim to empower a new generation of women to start their online businesses and to become microentrepreneurs”, he added.

Dabchy was the first Tunisian and African startup to join the European Fashion Tech Incubator in Paris. It was also listed among the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the World Economic Forum (WEF) first 100 top African and Arab promising startup in 2018.

The investment in Dabchy is 500 Startups’ first in the Tunisian market. The decision to invest was spurred by the demand for the product in North Africa, as demonstrated by Dabchy’s business tractions.
